For many years double coil spring washers were some of our most popular production items. These
washers are generally used for railway applications, thanks to their unique geometry which prevents
the rail loosening from the railroad ties.
The experience gained from years of producing the double coil spring washers has given Growermetal
the technical ability to offer:
- a wide range of sizes
- a production in stainless steel AISI 316, suitable for corrosive environments
- development and production of a patented design with partial imprinting on the washer
bearing surface.
The ribbed surface assures major improvement of the fastening performance of the spring washer.
The ribs are only present on the bearing surface and therefore eliminate the risk of breakage.
For added security, the ribs do not extend to the washer’s edge, avoiding any risk of cracking.
In order to assure quality conformance, the washers are tested as follows: - hardness test
- loading test
- torque test
- twisting test
- fracture test
Since 2000 Growermetal is a certified Q1 supplier for the German Railway.
